The Kew Greenhouse Cafe Richmond

Reviews

   I'll just say it's best to level your expectations here. A 3.5 stars. There is no service, and the food is overpriced for what you get. I ordered a greenhouse pie which was flaccid, came with four measly new potatoes and not worth £14.95. So after one time I would never return for the food. That + tea you're spending £19 for mediocre food and hilarious poor value. But if you want to people watch over cream tea and just relax in a quiet environment, then this place is my jam.

   Beautiful cafe, saw on way to Orchid festival at Kew, so I decided to eat lunch here on way back. We had ordered red lentil & pumpkin loaf, aubergine quinoa melange which was served alongwith salad , baby potatoes Loaf was really delicious so we ordered it repeat over ordering quiche. In food, only brinjal shell skin was really not easy to cut with knife (maybe just few mins undercooked and also their knives were lil blunt) which made it lil struggle to eat that dish, quinoa melange though was tasty. It’s cute cafe with lovely paintings hung, sitting amidst plants, so was good to get over witb that hangover of Kew gardens Their preparations made in house, they were quite busy that day- so wait time was around 10-15 mins in heating up dishes & serving them onto table. I really wanted to try their treacle and walnut tart, belgian chocolate cake as they were looking so appetising but had no company to share the dessert so bunked this time. We enjoyed our time here. Good place to dine when visiting Kew Gardens or in the area

   What a lovely little café! After spending the morning wandering around the Botanical Gardens, we were en route to the station and came across this café. Compared to the Tesco across the road, the big standard Starbucks, or the ever-present Gail’s - it was a no brainer choice. Everything was around what you’d expected for food in a more affluent area of London, especially near a tourist hotspot and right by a station. The staff were friendly and the food very tasty. We ordered a Bean and Cheese Jacket Potato, the Red Lentil and Pumpkin Loaf, a Lemon Florentine and a Spiced Apple Pie. We also ordered a pot of English breakfast tea, a soda and an iced coffee.

   Perfect location just 5 minutes from Kew gardens. This a great local gem, with a great selection of hot food and cakes. There's no table service so there can be long queues to order/pay at busy times but definitely worth it. There is a quieter area at the back of the cafe if you don't want the bustle.

   A must visit cafe when you are in Kew. This place is so inviting and welcoming thanks to the great staff who are constantly and consistently providing you with great service at all times. The cafe is very historic too, try their greenhouse room in winter or enjoy the beautiful sunshine on the seats provided outside. Their full English breakfast is a must try, so is their ice tea in the summer

   Only popped in for coffees, cake and a scone but the Greenhouse is a very nice place with a variety of seating indoors (including the conservatory) as well as just a few tables outside. Surprisingly not busy at 1030 on a Sunday morning. The menu looked tempting and the short wine list reasonably priced. Will go again. But, note of caution: this is a cash or cheque only establishment - no cards accepted!

   Very lovely place with lots of history, I had a peace of lemon meringue and it was lovely also had a vegetarian pie that was very nice came with new potatoes and salad, the tea and mocha we had was very nice, as those are our go to drinks we both thought they were spot on. This restaurant feels very comfortable almost like you are in a friend's dining room. The ladies bathroom was fine but I felt the men's need some work, new rad maybe some tidy work but it had character. They have a cat that is very friendly and a great member of the team, the girls who served us were very good but talk to the gentleman behind the counter if you want a history lesson he knows his stuff... Overall I'd highly recommend this restraint whether it be for a quick stop or a nice lunch/dinner.
